Formed in the summer of 2011 as a backing band for singer Josh Cournoyer's appearance at the WBRU Summer Concert Series, Northern Lands has since evolved into a full fledged rock and roll collaborative with Aaron Jaehnig (bass), Peter Hayden (lead guitar), and Joshua Wallace (drums) rounding out the lineup. Joining the band for guest spots on the album is Roz Raskin (The Ricecakes). Northern Lands also recently teamed up with Revival Brewing to launch their own craft lager, Northern Lands Lager which is available regionally this summer to coincide with the launch of He Took A Dive. For Fans of: The Hold Steady, Lucero, Dinosaur Jr., The E Street Band. Nine tracks in all, you can purchase a copy of the cd at the label website.

Message from Stan: I don't like the sound of voices - either singing or talking on telephones. I wish there was a way to remove vocals from records. They must have a computer program that can do this. Stuff like 'Revolver' or 'Around The World In A Day' would be so much better without all the talking, which is what most singing is: talking. The instrumentals on this LP represent what I think the soundtrack of my day would be. Most of the songs are meant to evoke the downstairs part of the house, where I spend a lot of time; but a few are for the upstairs; at least two are for work. Ten tracks in all, you can download the song Stan Flounders, watch the video for Stan's New Moog, and pick up a cd at the label website.

(based on the Warren Times Police Report), guests for this very special episode include Jen Long, Rachel Rozencrantz Riemer, Emerson Torrey, Prescott Cronin, and Will Schaff. In addition to the quiz show, we play a round of What Gets Your Goat, we get a call-in from Brian Jablonski, listen to a breastfeeding PSA, and we learn to count up to "sleventy." Music for this episode includes a Stan Sobscak remix, the theme from the movie Fletch, and Scientist. 72 minutes long.

The Atomic Buddha's "Blottered" is a 10 track collection of pounding garage rock. Each of these songs is an unapologetic mash of raucous guitars, bass, drums and vocals careening from hallucinogenic depths to the sharp ends of accusation. Along the way are some raw psychedelic blasts (I'm So High, Fading Fast) and some pile driving rock with the energy of The Who (Ginger Baker's Nightmare, You're Not In Reach). It all ends with "The Atomic Buddha" an 11 minute guitar freak out-not for the timid! All copies bought through the label webpage will ship with a link for a digital download of nine demo songs from the sessions. Digital download of the album is available here. CD contains two songs not included on the digital download and is available here.

Has it really been two years since the last full-length release from this fever dream of a band? That's what the calendar tells us, but we haven't really been sure of anything since the last dose of quinine. Following in the footsteps of Everything Odder Than Everything Else, Fictional Syntax finds Crotchthrottle sinking even further into the morass that is "structured" music, embracing things like melody, rhythm, and occasionally even intelligible vocals. They still remain totally obtuse on the genre front, swerving from quasi-electronic shenanigans to fuzzy freakouts, sometimes within the same song. When asked "What the hell were you thinking?" by management, the band refused to elaborate in any legally binding format. 16 tracks. Digital download of the album is available here or you can pick up a copy of the CD at the label webpage. The first 25 copies sold will get a special gift, hand packaged by the band!
